Who was our best PR ever?

Recommended Posts

I can only think of Roscoe Parrish and Leodis McKelvin here. Andre Roberts may be considered today's best PR, but I don't think he's anywhere near as good as Roscoe and Leodis were. Some of those moves Parrish used to make were just insane! Am I leaving anyone out? I've been a Bills fan since day 1 and I don't recall anyone from the first 40 years (1960 - 2000) that was as exciting as these 2 guys.

Terrence McGee!!

 

Nevermind he was just KO, not PR. My bad!

During those years, any return was exciting because it was either McGee on KO's, or Roscoe on punts.

 

One of my favorites was when McGee returned one in the third quarter against the Cowboys on MNF.

I missed it live. Went to the bathroom thinking that I'd miss nothing.

 

Not my best thought process ?

The one thing I remember is that Toyota was running a promotion where they would randomly select a fan and if the Bills returned a kickoff for a touchdown in the third quarter, that fan would win a new car. And when McGee returned that one, that fan won the car.

Andre Roberts catches everything and never fumbles.  Meanwhile, Leodis McKelvin single handedly lost us games because of him fumbling kicks.  No thank you.
